In 2021, the Washington Legislature passed the Climate Commitment Act, which established the state’s cap-and-invest program. The program is one important tool for the state in achieving its greenhouse gas limits set by law: 45% below 1990 levels by 2030, 70% below 1990 levels by 2040, and 95% below 1990 levels and net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. In this episode, join Claire Boyte-White, who leads Cap-and-Invest Policy Relations with the Washington Department of Ecology, as we explore the ins and outs of Washington's ambitious cap-and-invest program, including auctions held thus far, carbon project development opportunities, and more.
